November 7, 2006 – Team X-C.com is looking to make fast tracks the natural way this season thanks to partnerships with three delicious and highly effective all-natural sport nutritional supplements. With the aid of Ultima Replenisher sport drink, Sharkies fruit chews and Honey Stinger energy gels, look for X-C.com racers to conquer podiums everywhere!

“Many nutritional sport supplements on the market today are loaded with added sugar and artificial ingredients, which simply aren’t necessary for optimal performance,” says X-C.com Director Phil Villeneuve. “X-C.com is proud to partner with Ultima, Sharkies and Honey Stinger, not just because they taste great but because they prove less can be more.”

Ultima Replenisher is a natural sports drink with zero sugar and no artificial colours, flavours or sweeteners. It contains a full complement of electrolytes, complex carbs for energy, water-soluble vitamins and vitamin enhancers for day-to-day health maintenance, and antioxidants to protect body systems from free radicals (toxins).

Honey Stinger uses honey as the main source of carbohydrates, as opposed to man-made carbohydrates commonly found in other energy gels. Studies show that honey is low on the glycemic index and therefore provides a long, steady source of energy instead of a spike and crash. Honey is also a natural source of antioxidants.

Sharkies Organic Energy Fruit Chews are wheat, gluten and gelatin-free and are packed with real fruit juice, whole grains and carbohydrates for an energy boost that lasts. With 41 grams of both fast and slow-release carbs per 13 pieces they have the endurance needed to go the extra mile.

“Team X-C.com racers are all health nuts, so it’s only natural for us to partner with products that represent our nutritional values,” says Villeneuve.

Check out samples of Ultima, Honey Stinger and Sharkies during X-C.com’s 2006/07 Nordic Event Tour, an interactive exhibition featuring the hottest products from Nordic and outdoor sport manufacturers, beginning November 24-26 at the Sovereign Lakes-Silver Star Mountain Resort Nordic Festival.
